This just won't run. Anyone know why it won't work. Was posted on my mud so should work ok for my mud
I think , that Cmud might have a problem with it.

#CLASS {autoprac}
#ALIAS aprac {#class casting %1;#class manaing %1;#var listposition 1}
#VAR spelllist {bless|armor}
#VAR praclist {90|90}
#VAR targetlist {self|self}
#VAR listposition {1} {1}
#TRIGGER {^ Mana~: ~[(%d)%s~/%s(%d)~]} {#var maxmana %2}
#CLASS 0
#CLASS {autoprac|manaing}
#TRIGGER {(%n)hp (%n)m (%n)mv>} {#if ((%2=@maxmana) AND (%3=@maxmove)) {#t- manaing;#t+ casting;w;#show casting;prac %item( @spelllist, @listposition)}} "" {nocr|prompt}
#CLASS 0
#CLASS {autoprac|casting}
#REGEX {(@spelllist)\s+(\d+)} {#if (%1=%item( @spelllist, @listposition)) {#show casting;#if (%2=%item( @praclist, @listposition)) {#add listposition 1};c '%item( @spelllist, @listposition)' %item( @targetlist, @listposition);prac %item( @spelllist, @listposition)}}
#TRIGGER {You haven't the energy to cast that spell!} {e}
#TRIGGER {No way! You're fighting for your life!} {flee}
#TRIGGER {PANIC! You couldn't escape!} {flee}
#TRIGGER {Down - Entry Room to Algeroth } {#t- casting;#t+ manaing}
#TRIGGER {I do not know that one.} {#var listposition 1}
#CLASS 0

You'll need to be much more specific than what you've given us... such as WHAT isn't working about it...

Also, what is the #CLASS casting %1 stuff about?

Well by looking at it, whoever made it is using the "aprac" alias to enable and disable those two classes so I guess they are entering "aprac 1" or "aprac 0" and set listposition to 1 on both enable and disable. One reason the script won't work for you probably is that you need to create the maxmana and maxmove variables yourself. They are not provided, but they are referenced in the script.

I would definitely clean up that script though.

Edit: Also your prompt trigger may not be matching either. They have %n instead of %d. The Help file states "%n match a number that starts with a + or - sign" so you may need to change %n to %d.

I created the maxMana and maxMove variables and tried the following script and entered #showp {100hp 100m 4mv>} and it worked how the script is set up to work.

Thanks for that.. I would have been there forever. I assumed he ,the person who first made the script, knew what he was doing, and all was there. I did wonder
about the variable.
Imported fine , shall test it later .0330 here.

Ok have tried this on my mud and , it's not working. I type aprac on , and nothing happening expect the message to screen say the classes are on.
I 'm lost

Edit I delete it then put it back, and now it's working a bit,. It cast the one spell but won't leave and recharged mana , just goes around in a loop but maybe the code really has to be a total Cmud , so it's not so fussy, basically this script, should be allowed to run overnight , and go through the list, I hope.

I have no idea what you mean by it has to be a total Cmud? Yes this is a Cmud script. As I said you have to make sure your prompt actually matches the trigger. Perhaps paste what your prompt actually looks like. The script is doing exactly what it is written to do. If you want it to do something else, then you'll have to change it. I'd say your prompt isn't matching though if it isn't working.

It works , but it mess up the flee command, I flee to another room , so 9 times out of ten it's fine. Then, that one time the scripts stops because it has gone to another room where there is no healers so no triggers and then of course , the script stops working. This is a problem if I'm leaving the script to run over night, which is what I want , prac scripts like this are allowed on my mud.
Answer to your ? I just thought that the conversion to Cmud might have done something to the original script. , This assume the original script worked in the client it was made for in the first place. It may not have.
But thanks again oldguy2 for fixing it up to this point, to work in Cmud.
My question is... by looking at the above script, is there a way of making it have error check so it does not flee to far.
If the owner of the script ever comes back on-line, I will asked him, but people come and go. So no luck there.

inside the settings editor under file is the compatability report... that should show you any key errors

We don't know your mud, and we don't know what you want the script to do in the 1 time out of 10 that you end up in a room where there are no healers. You need to figure out what you want to happen, and what cues the script might use to realize that it needs to do something. Bot scripts like this require a lot of work to account for every possible situation that it might face, and unless you can tell us exactly what the situation is that it doesn't work for and what you want to happen, you'll have to figure that out yourself.

The Targetlist in this string is not been picked up, this whole practice script , needs an overhaul. The "You don't have enough to cast" that spell , has me moving "e" depending how many times the triggers fires.

#sendraw %concat("c '",%item( @spellList, @listPosition),"' ",%item( @targetList, @listPosition))
